So what is this reporter, making a top “15” ALL TIME pick. I don’t want to mention how long I’ve loved the Steelers, but I could never narrow my picks to 15.
    The list was made by Gil Brandt who is 90 years old and always biased to his former team, the Cowboys, who he was VP of player personnel in the 70s/80s before Jerrah took over. He and Landry would cry so much that Noll would make jokes about the crying. And Noll was always serious.

    You got it backward. Without Joe Greene there are no 4 rings.

    Without either. Joe Greene changed games but he still has zero TD passes in his career.

    No offense to Joe, who was an all time great, but nothing is a game changer more so than having a franchise QB. And Bradshaw was one of the most clutch QB's you could ever have in big moments.
